Tooth Fairy

I have the sweetest boy! You know sometimes you just wonder if your kids are going to turn out or if you're totally messing them up. I hope that they don't turn out in the least like myself. And sometimes you just are amazed at their sensitivity and kindness. Well this is one of those moments. My boy had his friend sleep over last night and just before bed, the friend's tooth fell out. My boy found a Ziplok to put it in so he could take it home to the tooth fairy. I told him he should just put it under his pillow tonight thinking that I'd put a little surprise in there until he told me that for his last tooth he got 5 bucks! Being the wonderful mother I am, I completely forgot!This morning as I'm in there helping them move the mattress out of his room so they have more play space, he looks under the pillow and is so excited to find 50 cents! How sweet is that?

Who Am I?

I am a wife and Mom to the 2 most amazing kids. I have loved being a stay at home- mostly- Mom and have been until the last couple years!!! I'm a nurse and have the awesome fun of teaching university students how to be the best they can at that. I am always looking for a little more to jump into to satisfy my constant curiosity to learn more. I am married to my sweetheart and love of my life. I describe my life like a patchwork quilt or a stained glass window...along with my hope that my life can be looked through to reveal something greater through the glass ... there are lots of little pieces that somehow don't always seem to fit together, but joined together make up the tapestry of my life.

I am most of all a daughter of the King, a child of God. Follower of Jesus!
